Clarins Beauty Delights Advent Calendar Review

The Clarins Beauty Delights Advent Calendar for Holiday 2016 ($125) arrives soon and you must, must, must spoiled yourself rotten with one. Ticking off 24 days until Christmas this countdown calendar marks each day of the season off with a mini, deluxe, and full size versions of your favorite Clarins makeup and skincare as well as some other festive surprises.

If you don’t like spoilers don’t jump ahead!

I was positive that I would stop at just one make and beauty advent calendar this year but who can stop at just one? As a Clarins fan girl I was delighted with the contents of this one. I was actually rather surprised that it actually introduced me to some new skincare picks from Clarins I never tried for like HydraQuench Intensive Serum Bi-Phase! Where has this been all my life? I quickly picked up the full size version! There are also plenty of my personal favorites here like Clarins Beauty Flash Balm which is a fabulous way to prime dry skin before foundation! It adds a dewy freshness to skin instantly. Not to mention Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch which is fabulous not only on face but gently smoothed under eyes before concealer to fill fine lines and provide a perfect base for concealer.

And hey, there’s even a full size Clarins Booster! Clarins Boosters just launched this Fall and are available in three formulas that can be added to your moisturizer to add extra levels of moisture, to repair skin, or the detox formula that plumps and smooths skin. I got the Detox Booster and I’m looking forward to trying it.

Not to mention there’s cute little surprises that aren’t makeup related under each door like little charms (you can use them as zipper pulls), a keychain/purse fob, as well as gift tags!

Here’s a list of the entire contents:

Clarins Detox Booster (0.5 oz)

Clarins Blush Prodige (0.1 oz)

The Clarins Beauty Delights Advent Calendar is available at clarinsusa.com for $125.

wow there are so many that are great values! It’s hard to choose. This is def a very good value but the L’Occitane is also a very good value. I got the CTBeauty one and that’s a good value as well, it’s $200 and the contents are as varied but there’s some very generous sizes in that one. I also feel like the Body Shop ones are very, very good values plus they are offered in tiers so depending on your budge there’s three different calendars. 😉

Don’t you thin it’s ridiculous that Clarins would put in their calendar gift tags and three days in a row some key chains, I mean they’re nice but are they really £95 advent calendar worthy.
